Configure AWS IoT Greengrass on AWS IoT

Sign in to the AWS Management Console on your
computer and open the AWS IoT Core console. If this is the first time opening this
console, choose Get started.

Choose Greengrass.

On the Welcome to AWS IoT Greengrass page, choose Create
a Group.

An AWS IoT Greengrass group contains settings and other information
about its components, such as devices, Lambda functions, and connectors.
A group defines how its components can interact with each other.

Tip

For an example that uses the AWS IoT Greengrass API to create and deploy a group,
see the
gg_group_setup package from GitHub.

On the Set up your Greengrass group page, choose Use easy
creation.

Each group requires an AWS IoT Greengrass core, which manages
local processes. A core needs a certificate that allows it to access AWS IoT
and an AWS IoT policy that allows it to perform AWS IoT and AWS IoT Greengrass actions.
This step creates
and provisions a core for the new group.

Enter a name for your group (for example,
MyFirstGroup), and then choose
Next.

Use the default name for the AWS IoT Greengrass core, and then choose
Next.

On the Run a scripted easy Group creation page,
choose Create Group and Core.

AWS IoT creates an AWS IoT Greengrass group with default security policies and configuration
files for you to load onto your device.
